Work is associated with the future Lemoyne Bottleneck Improvements project.
Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced today that the schedule has changed for field work planned this week on Market Street (Route 1010) in Cumberland County. Subsurface utility engineering (SUE) crews will be locating underground utilities and surveying within the limits of the future Lemoyne Bottleneck Improvements project in Lemoyne and Wormleysburg boroughs.
Weather permitting, this work will be performed daily from 8:30 AM to 3:30 PM Wednesday, November 5, through Friday November 7, from North Third Street (Route 2035) to Front Street (Route 1027). This work was initially planned to begin Tuesday, November 4.
There may be lane closures, as needed, in both the eastbound and westbound directions of Market Street during work hours.
Motorists should be alert and drive with caution through the work zone.
The Lemoyne Bottleneck Improvements project primarily addresses high levels of stress for bicyclists and pedestrians due to issues including high traffic volumes, curved roadway alignment, limited sight distance, inconsistent or nonexistent shoulder widths, and the poor condition and narrow width of sidewalks along the corridor and at Norfolk Southern railroad bridges.
This project is currently in the design phase and is estimated to go to construction in 2027.
